My posts are serious business.
Phate wrote:Votes Crub and FoS's Sir T in first post, accusing Crub of trying to reveal the Masons and Sir T of bandwagoning. Next post: changes his vote to Samruc, implying that real townies vote instead of just accusing. Next post: revotes Crub with no other reason than that Simenon wanted him to die. (At this point, I am 72% that he is scum. Three votes and one FoS in three posts, including two flip-flops based on public opinion. His accusation to Sir T of bandwagon is paling in comparison to his own behaviour.)
The reason why I voted with every one of my posts was because of the fact that I wasn't posting too much day 1. I'm not saying it's a good reason, but with all that time in-between the posts, my viewpoints on things are bound to change. My first post, I voted Crub for the mason comment that stood out to me. It was just my initial suspicion at the time. Next post, I vote for Samruc to get an answer on something. Third post, I'm satisfied with his answer, and I go back to the person I was initially suspicious of, now with me being more sure because of his comments leading up to my third post. Oh, and how is my behavior "paling in comparison" to that of Sir Tornado? He wanted someone lynched for reasons that have nothing to do with the current game. He put him at L-1 early day 1 because of his playstyle. I know that I was part of a bandwagon, but I least I thought the person I was trying to lynch was scum.
Phate wrote:Sammich notices this, and confronts him. CO backpedals, saying Crub was his main suspect all the time, and that he just voted for Samruc "to see his response," and also, in essence, admits that his only evidence is Crub's perceived failure (he calls all of Crub's responses appeals to emotion) to defend himself after CO calls him out on mentioning the Masons
When did I say that Crub wasn't my main suspect? And I called them appeals to emotion because they were. All he was doing was going "I'm town. If you're voting me, it means you're scum. You'll see when I turn up town."
Phate wrote:(Is this particularly damning? I think not.
Him talking about the masons I thought was suspicious. I thought he was scum because of that in combination with his response to the votes he received.
Phate wrote:Crub strikes me not as scum, but as a newbie, or unskilled, townie. Turns out I was right.)
Crub strikes me as townie now as well. If only we could play in hindsight.
I don't like this statement. The wording suggests that you were playing and you felt that Crub was a townie, but you weren't even playing day 1. It just seems like you're trying to word it in a way as to make it obvious I was wrong.
Phate wrote:Casually mentions that Sammich is his first choice for scum (with no justification - this is essentially another completely unfounded FoS based on public opinion), but instead votes for AlSlee simply "because he hasn't posted in 9 days," and because he wouldn't like to be accused of setting up for a hammer.
Do you know why I wouldn't have liked to put Sammich at L-1? Because we were about 1 and a half pages into day 2. I think that's a little early to do that. He still is my first choice for scum at the moment, because of his list of suspicions and now because of his response to your comments.
Looking over your list, I'm happy with my vote on you. Let's put your summaries of all players in a list:
ChaosOmega: definite scum
Jex: probable scum
Khelvaster: could be scum/could be mason
Sammich: scum
Lemming1607: townie
Per: townie
Samrus: townie
Shanba: townie
Simenon: fairly sure scum
Phate: townie (obviously)
It looks like you're trying to do the same thing Sammich is, which is to suspect a bunch of people and get on the one that sticks. So there are 4 people who you are at least fairly sure are scum, in addition to another person who believe could be scum. And surprisingly, the person who hammered day 1 is not in your long list of suspicions. Considering you think the Crub lynch was a bad one since you knew he was a newbie townie, I'm curious as to why you're not suspicious of Lemming1607.
